A topic close to my heart.

I jog through a dog-off-the-leash-friendly-park a few times a week, usually around mid-morning. One morning recently there was a record 19 dogs but this was broken last Monday by 23 dogs. In each case, most dogs, I’ll say more than 75%, were split between professional dog walkers.

I won’t even ask how a dog walker can monitor and clean up after four or five dogs at once, but I will ask why anyone would get a dog who is not home so much that they need to PAY someone to walk and entertain their otherwise lonely cooped-up dog?

And I will ask how can anyone living in an apartment even consider imprisoning a puppy as their companion and plaything, at heir beck and call.

I don’t get it. It seems very selfish to me. Why not just get Pet Hotel from the App Store or Nintendogs?
